2018 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · ML18 AEB

The 2018 Hyundai i20 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 16 March 2026 at 12,663 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since 2022. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration and no advisories across the full five-year DVSA history. Recorded mileage sits at 12,663 miles after roughly eight years of service, an average of about 1,583 miles per year. The odometer advanced from 6,925 miles at the 23 March 2022 test to 8,341 miles in March 2023, 9,662 miles in March 2024, 11,115 miles in March 2025, and 12,663 miles in March 2026. The annual increments stay between 1,100 and 1,600 miles, with no gaps or sudden accumulation. Such low, consistent use implies light running but also long stationary periods between journeys. No tester ever flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions faults. The absence of advisories means the official record gives no evidence of structural or mechanical risk. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframe, since standing vehicles rot unseen where MOT lifts miss early scale. Check the brake calipers for seizure after limited use and verify tyre sidewall condition, as aged rubber cracks regardless of tread depth. The clean history suggests a careful keeper, yet low mileage alone does not certify component health beyond the test bay.
